Assuming you're using Xcode 8, you need to turn on Background Modes in Capabilities, and check "Audio, Airplay, and Picture in Picture".

Add this code to your viewDidLoad() as well 

let audioSession = AVAudioSession.sharedInstance()

    do {
        try audioSession.setCategory(AVAudioSessionCategoryPlayback)
    } catch {

    }

It should work after doing so.
